What should be done about the Leinster Final Fiasco?

Gaa Theory of Relativity

Special Relatively:

The laws of Gaa are different for all observers in uniform motion relative to one another.
The speed of outrage in a vacuum is the same for all observers, regardless of their relative connection to the event or whether they even saw it in the first instance.
Two infringements, blatantly obvious for all other observers, may not be obvious for an arbitrating observer if he operates in slow motion.
Moving clocks are observed to tick more slowly than an arbitrator's stationary clock.

General Relativity:

Time goes slower in higher gravitational situations. This is called 'playing for a draw'.
Outrage precesses in a way unexpected in Sheridan's theory of gravity.
Rays of light bend in the presence of high gravitational fields adversely affecting the view of the observer.
Only after a number of random collisions can an arbitrator accelerate to the speed of light.
In higher gravitational situations red shift can appear as flashes of yellow to observers.

Pierce Brosnan said today: "Leave them wanting more, less is more, and I don't think we could top what we did the first time. It was such a phenomenal success." (he was asked about a new Mamma Mia! movie)

[Farrandeelin]

I was one of the 36 people who voted that the title should be awarded to Louth and Meath enter the qualifiers.  The more I think about it the more I am convinced that this is what should be done.

I did the same thing and still hold that stance.

[Royalranter]

Just confirmed, no repaly

[Royalranter]

That should have said no replay!!!!!

[Puckoon]

Everyone knows Marsden was unlucky to go - in that Jordan instigated the whole thing.

To claim it was an incident which turned a game is a tad wide of the mark.

[DuffleKing]

TYP is showing that the ref wasn't looking and couldn't have seen the incident - whatever happened

[DuffleKing]

Because he was looking down and away at the point of impact? I really don't know... i'm just trying to answer the question for you

[DuffleKing]

If you'd tried a bit harder you could have come up with it yourself

[Zapatista]

If you'd tried a bit harder you could have come up with it yourself

If we've learnt anything from this Fiasco it's not to try at all.

Very noble of Louth.

Not so noble of the Gaa to leave it to the victim to have do the right thing.

Equally not very noble of the Gaa to suggest that the accidental beneficiary should have had to do the right thing either.

What will the Gaa learn from this?

All together now..........

[Louth Exile]

NOTHING....................

When might we expect to hear word on whether they are going to remove Sludden from the panel or at least retire from IC refereeing?? Or am just still in this optimistic mood?

[saffron sam2]

Louth to take no further action


" 1 Goalmouth incident at the end of match: The referee has indicated in his report that he blew the whistle for a penalty, but then changed his mind and awarded a goal instead, which is contrary to playing rules. We also fail to understand why the referee did not consult with both umpires in relation to the goal being awarded, which is also contrary to guidance given to referees in such contraversal circumstances. In the light of this and the clear admission in the referees report that he "made a terrible mistake," the referees report therefore is questionable.

What age was the person who wrote this?

If Sluddsy saw a penalty in that incident then he is an even bigger fool that I thought. Which is an achievement.

Still begs another question. Had Meath scored a goal from the penalty Sluddo awarded (before changing his mind), would Louth have been more / less/ equally hard done by?

Much much less of course. Some people, albeit a small minority, thought it was a penalty. At least it was a debatable decision.

Those are the two main lessons from this...

The GAA, who are supposed to be leading and running this game and competition, when they should have done something they ran away.

A replay whether to have it or not had NOTHING to do with Meath, Meath CB, Meath players or the Louth CB either. The should never have been in that situation, or allowed be in that situation. THAT decision should have been made clear by the GAA from the very get go and they should have acted.
But no, they just put their head in the sand.
